!. Present statements of your income and your household expenses. 2. Avoid having more children at this time. As long as these children are fed, clothed, housed and healthy, it is not your business what she does with the support. Gail

What type of lease (if any) does your friend have with this landlord. A yearly lease? A month to month lease? No written lease? Gail

There is nothing legally that stops a landlord/management from signing a lease with someone who is not working. gail

A transfer of the security deposit should have been done between the new owner and the previous owners when the unit was purchased. If "Duey" never did the transfer to "Eric and Sally" on the first go-round than he still should have the security deposit. If he did transfer the deposit to...

Congratulations! Glad it worked out for you... Gail

Your tenant broke the lease, refuses to pay the fee to find another tenant and is threatening to sue you....over what? Lawsuits are about money; doesn't sound as if this fellow has lost anything in the deal. Is the lawyer that you're dealing with familiar with New Jersey landlord tenant...

Attached are the laws in Oregon regarding entry into your rental by landlord/management/workers hired by management: http://www.osbar.org/public/legalinfo/1258_TenantPrivacy.htm They must give you at least 24 hours notice (unless this is for an emergency repair). Pay particular attention...

You know, after reading several of these postings I have to say that if folks carrying illegal substances simply DROVE better (no speeding, no weaving over yellow lines, no running of stop signs) they'd be far less likely to get stopped and end up in the pickle this fellow is in. I'm always...

And again, legally, no. Unless you wish to face the risk of an eviction for failure to pay all of your rent. Look; if the landlord had never addressed this issue; if you complained about the bedbugs and they just blew you off, you would have some avenues to remedy the situation, including...

Not without the risk of facing an eviction for failure to pay all of your rent. Again, the issue that comes up with things like repairs/pest control is whether the landlord has ignored the complaints or addressed these. Five times out since August certainly indicates a responsiveness on the...

No, you cannot deduct 1/3rd of the rent since you believe the room is uninhabitable. The issue of whether a tenant can withhold rent revolves around a landlord not addressing a repair issue. The fact that the landlord has sent an exterminator out four times since August and is sending them...

A "tenancy at will" (sometimes also known as "at sufferance) in Texas involves tenants who stay at a place but pay no actual rent. Such tenancies can be terminated "at will" by the landlord; however, the landlord can't actually kick them out (if they refuse to leave) without a court order...

Do you have the legal authority to make such decisions for your grandmother? Gail

Many leases specify who can live in the unit and when a "guest" becomes a "tenant", adding wear and tear to the rental unit. Some leases even include fees for such wear and tear if a guest stays longer than a specified amount of time. If your lease has none of these provisions, the landlord...

What damage did the dog do to the rental unit? Gail

You cannot keep the tenants security deposit unless, after she moves out, you find damage above normal wear and tear. In other words, you cannot attempt to keep her security deposit out of retaliation for her reporting you as renting the unit out illegally. Gail

Then it does no good to attempt to serve him anything. Most leases make each person who signed "jointly and severally" responsible for owed rent. In other words, if one tenant cannot be found, the other is responsible for all of the owed rent. I'd suggest you need to start the eviction...

It's pretty clear you know where the wife lives. What about the husband? Are you aware of his current residence should you decide to serve him with anything? Gail

It's doubtful that not having access to a kitchen sink would fall into the category of the place being so uninhabitable that the tenant can no longer occupy the rental unit. Sure it's annoying and the promises of the landlord coming in to fix it and never actually showing up is even more...

If you caused this damage, yes. Gail
